That is Mr. Duncan. He’s one of those teachers who wears seasonal clothing no matter what time of the year it is.

    Oh no! is that hacking I see in the backgroud?!

    No – it’s stating the obvious in terms even today’s semi-literate *might* comprehend.

    Bottom left of panel 4, Mike. Probably can’t see it through those elitist goggles– lift ’em a bit, you’ll spot it.

    Sequenced ones and zeroes that aren’t present in other panels? Yes, that’s hacking.

    Whether it’s Frankie hacking up something for the forces of good, or Gavin making Frankie’s chair gnaw at his ankles, it’s hacking.

    I almost didn’t catch it myself.

    Fellow Grammar Gestapo here myself, by the way. I just prefer to say it in ways that don’t sound like I’m looking down my nose at other people.

    (Yes, I know that sounds contradictory, and no, I’m not trying to start an argument. I’m tired, shut up.)

    Honestly I’m hoping for the former of my two suggestions, ’cause that would mean I predicted a plot point, and that’d make me happy, but I’m going to shut up and go to sleep now.

    Mr. Duncan seems like a pretty legendary teacher so far. I wish I was taught English like that.

  6. grayfoxpianist

    I had an English teacher like that last year. She was my favorite ever because she was insane and hated our generation because we’re so lazy about writing. Oh, how I wish I could have her again… haha

    We had a teacher like that! Mr. Goodall. He was a decent guy all-round but he would come out with little gems like that one and if you got on his bad side, like a guy in my class frequently did, he could be quite vendictive

    damn, I nearly missed the binary code in panel 4. well spotted sanddune! o.o

  8. ZesuBen

    Wait, why did he have a calculator out for English? πŸ™

  9. Beanjamish

  21. Lachesis

    ummm, wasn’t it shown that Jack is *left-handed*, back when he first spots Max munching an apple under the tree?

    …or (giving you an “out” here) is this one of his mom’s Ninja things: “Always switch hands when doing tasks, so they’re equally strong”. something like that.

  22. Joe Whitehead

    Pen and paper hacking? Wow, that’s pretty low-level. πŸ˜€
